New utility allows easy toggle between front and rear speaker output

A bit like Fermatâ€™s last theorem, where he casually announced having solved one of the biggest mathematical problems of this age, Daniel Ãlvarez has created a â€œsimpleâ€ application for switching sound output from the front to the rear speaker and vice versa.

The small application, called PPC-AudioSwitch, accomplished this without any fuss and seems to work pretty well on the Xperia X1 I am using, handling the switch completely in the fly.

The software is particularly useful for VOIP phone calls, where the inability to direct the audio to the earpiece has been the bane of this type of communication on Windows Mobile for some time. I can confirm it works well on Skype.
